Chem Asian J 2023:e202300842. [PMID: 37903723 DOI: 10.1002/asia.202300842] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 10/27/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 11/01/2023]
Abstract
In response to the pressing issue of water pollution caused by heavy metal ions, there is a growing demand for green adsorbents that can effectively remove these contaminants while being easy to separate and regenerate. A novel magnetic composite was synthesized by bonding amino-functionalized Fe3 O4 -SiO2 magnetic particles (MNP-NH2 ) to polyethyleneimine (PEI)-grafted cellulose nanofibers (CNF). The modification of CNF with PEI through a peptidic coupling reaction resulted in the uniform dispersion and strong attachment of MNP-NH2 particles (286.7 nm) onto the PEI-CNF surface. This composite exhibited exceptional adsorption capabilities for heavy metals, achieving 16.73 mg/g for Pb, 16.12 mg/g for Cu, and 12.53 mg/g for Co. These remarkable adsorption capacities are attributed to the complex interactions between the metal ions and the amino, carboxyl, and hydroxyl groups on the surface of PEI-CNF-MNP. The introduction of PEI significantly enhanced the adsorption capacities, and the adsorption sequence (Pb(II)>Cu(II)>Co(II)) can be explained by differences in ionic radius and surface complexation strength. Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic models described the adsorption process, while Na2 EDTA was proved effective for desorption with high recovery rates. This magnetic composite holds promise for treating heavy metal-contaminated wastewater due to its impressive performance.

[PMID: 36716836 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.123342] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2022] [Revised: 01/03/2023] [Accepted: 01/15/2023] [Indexed: 01/29/2023]
Abstract
Nanocellulose/polyethylenimine composites have attracted growing attention due to their versatility as new materials for application in different fields. Water remediation is one of the traditional applications of these composites and their investigation as adsorbents for single water pollutants is well established. However, most water resources such as rivers, lakes, and even oceans contain complex mixtures of pollutants. Despite several recently published reviews on water purification technology, they only focused on these material as single pollutant removers and hardly mentioned their capacity to simultaneously recover multiple pollutants. Therefore, there is still a gap in the archived literature considering nanocellulose/polyethylenimine composites targeting water remediation with multiple water pollutants. In this review, methods for synthesizing such composites are classified and compared according to the mechanism of reactions, such as chemical crosslinking and physical adsorption, while outlining advantages and limitations. Then, the water pollutants mainly targeted by those composites are discussed in detail to expound the relationship between the synthesis method and the type and adsorption capacity. Finally, the last section presents challenges and opportunities of these nanocellulose/polyethylenimine composites as emerging sorbents for sustainable multiple water pollutants purification technologies. This review aims to lay out the basis for future developments of these composites for multiple water pollutants.

Abstract
In order to increase the number and contact probability of electric dipole on cellulose, acid and alkali treatment was employed to extract hemicellulose and lignin from original wood to gain a highly oriented cellulose frame. The combined means with 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl-NaBr-NaClO oxidation and impregnation of PDMS with compression was subsequently used to enhance its mechanical performance and electromechanical conversion. The assembled wooden electromechanical device (10 mm × 10 mm × 1 mm) exhibits the maximum open-circuit voltage (V OC) of 11.75 V and short-circuit current (I SC) of 211.01 nA as stepped by foot. It can be sliced to fabricate a flexible sensor with high sensitivity displaying V OC of 2.88 V and I SC of 210.09 nA under the tapped state. Its highly oriented wood fiber makes it display significant anisotropy in terms of mechanical and electromechanical performance for multidirectional sense. This strategy will exactly provide reference for developing other high-performance piezoelectric devices.

Removal of toxic dye from dye-laden wastewater using a new nanocomposite material: Isotherm, kinetics and adsorption mechanism. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 308:136413.

Abstract
In this study, (hemi)cellulosic biochar-based environment-friendly non-toxic nanocomposite (nAg-AC) was fabricated for an inordinate overlook of toxic dye-laden wastewater depollution. This hybrid nanocomposite grafted with silver nanoparticles, numerous hydroxyl and π-bond containing functional groups exhibited outstanding physicochemical properties. FESEM images indicated the heterogeneous porous structure of nAg-AC, while BET analysis revealed mesoporous property with a significant increment of overall surface area (132%). Imbedding of silver nanoparticles and the presence of multiple hydroxyl groups was evident from the XRD and XPS spectrum. Further, the TGA result indicated excellent thermal stability, and FTIR analysis suggested the involvement of surface functional groups like -OH, =C = O, =NH, =C = C = , and -CH in Rhodamine B (RhB) adsorption. The adsorbent matrix provided the overall mechanical strength and facilitated recycling, while the functional matrix (biochar) provided the adsorptive locus for augmented RhB adsorption efficiency (92.77%). Experiments pertaining to adsorption isotherms and kinetics modeling suggested that RhB was removed through multilayer chemisorption on the heterogeneous nAg-AC surface. The main RhB adsorption mechanism included cumulative efforts of H-bindings, π-π stacking interaction, pore-filling, and electrostatic interactions. The nAg-AC maintained mechanical robustness with significant RhB adsorption even after three consecutive regeneration cycles signifying facile recycling. The nAg-AC displayed an outstanding efficacy for the real industrial wastewater depollution, indicating high effectiveness for practical environmental applications. Finally, the cost analysis (incorporating economic, environmental, and social dimensions) suggested a significant role of the nAg-AC in promoting and establishing sustainable development with the circular economy.

Abstract
In this study, activated carbon (AC) was chemically activated using sodium hydroxide (NaOH), and polyethyleneimine (PEI) was grafted onto the AC using glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking agent. Then the modified AC was applied to treat water samples containing copper ions (Cu2+). Preparation of AC-NaOH@PEI. The grafted AC was characterized, demonstrating that the specific surface area of material decreased from 959.3 to 556.9 m2/g. The ζ-potential changed from -27.2 to 10.4 mV, and the presence of a distinct flocculation on the surface of the AC was observed via scanning electron microscopy. The results demonstrated that PEI was successfully grafted onto the surface of AC. Furthermore, the adsorption results indicated that the Cu2+ adsorption capacity of AC-NaOH@PEI was greatly enhanced with increasing PEI loading. The adsorption amount of Cu2+ by the grafted AC-NaOH@PEI-200 increased from 20.02 to 47.8 mg/g. In addition, the adsorption of Cu2+ by AC-NaOH@PEI was a pH dependent process. At a pH of 6, the maximum removal rate reached 93%. The adsorption process is better described by the Langmuir and quasi-second order adsorption models, signifying that the adsorption of Cu2+ on AC@PEI consists of monolayer adsorption and chemisorption. After four adsorption-desorption cycles, AC@PEI exhibited high adsorption capacity for Cu2+, indicating that it has good regeneration ability. It is a promising adsorbent material.

Abstract
The rapid and efficient treatment of complex wastewater remains challenging. Herein, green paper-based materials with high wet strength, good oil-water separation property and high heavy metal ion adsorption capacity were prepared via a facile, cost-effective process. The introduction of amphoteric functional groups not only met the requirements for heavy metal ion adsorption, but also maintained the stable underwater superoleophobic properties of materials a wide pH range. The covalent crosslinking between cellulose fibers induced by polyethyleneimine and citric acid significantly improved the wet strength (up to 26.0 Nm/g) and the porosity. The membrane flux was increased up to 3515 L/(m2·h) and the separation efficiencies were higher than 98%. Moreover, the theoretical maximum adsorption capacities for Cd(II) and Pb(II) reached 73.29 and 93.75 mg/g, respectively. Combined with filtration technology, the materials can realize the continuous and efficient purification of complex wastewater.

Abstract
Coconut consumption leads to the generation of a large number of fibrous residues such as epicarp and mesocarp. In this study, bioadsorbents were prepared from coconut shells (CS), coconut cellulose (CC) and treated coconut cellulose (MCC) with cetyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (CTAC) for the elimination of Congo red (CR) in a watery solution. The impact of the adsorbent quantity (15, 25 and 35 mg) and initial concentration (40, 70 and 100 mg/L) were evaluated. Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) confirmed the existence of OH−, C=O, COOH and CH2 groups in the adsorbents as well as the deformation of the bands between 3400 and 3800 cm−1 after the adsorption of CR, which was attributed to its capture in the bioadsorbent. From the bromatological analysis, a content of 48.94% lignin, 35.99% cellulose and 10.51% hemicellulose was found. SEM images showed a lignocellulosic essential surface origin for all adsorbents with presence of folds, roughness of an irregular exposed area and fibrous filaments. The average particle size was 0.45 mm and adsorbents had a mean porosity of 0.58. Increasing the initial concentration had a beneficial influence on the removal efficiency of CR, achieving a 99.9% removal with MCC. CS showed slow kinetics in the initial stages whereas CC and MCC achieved 78% and 99.98% removal at 120 min, respectively; an equilibrium was reached at 480 and 20 min, respectively. MCC, CC and CS achieved a maximum qe of 256.12 mg/g, 121.62 mg/g and 17.76 mg/g, respectively.

Abstract
Toxic metals in the industrial wastewaters have been liable for drastic pollution hence a powerful and economical treatment technology is needed for water purification. For this reason, some pure cellulosic materials were derived from waste fiber to obtain an economical adsorbent for wastewater treatment. Conversion of cellulose into grafting materials such as poly(methyl acrylate)-grafted cellulose was performed by free radical grafting process. Consequently, poly(hydroxamic acid) ligand was produced from the grafted cellulose. The intermediate products and poly(hydroxamic acid) ligand were analyzed by FT-IR, FE-SEM, TEM, EDX, and XPS spectroscopy. The adsorption capacity (qe) of some toxic metals ions by the polymer ligand was found to be excellent, e.g., copper capacity (qe) was 346.7 mg·g−1 at pH 6. On the other hand, several metal ions such as cobalt chromium and nickel also demonstrated noteworthy sorption capacity at pH 6. The adsorption mechanism obeyed the pseudo second-order rate kinetic model due to the satisfactory correlated experimental sorption values (qe). Langmuir model isotherm study showed the significant correlation coefficient with all metal ions (R2 > 0.99), indicating that the single or monolayer adsorption was the dominant mode on the surface of the adsorbent. This polymer ligand showed good properties on reusability. The result shows that the adsorbent may be recycled for 6 cycles without any dropping of starting sorption capabilities. This polymeric ligand showed outstanding toxic metals removal magnitude, up to 90–99% of toxic metal ions can be removed from industrial wastewater.

Abstract
Cellulose/polyethyleneimine composites have increasingly attracted the attention of scientific community, devoted to the design and development of new synthetic strategies and materials for different application fields. In this review, after introducing the main characteristics of the two polymeric components, we provide in the second section a critical overview on the main protocols for the synthesis of these composites, considering both the several cellulose sources and forms, and the different cross-linkers and cross-linking procedures developed for this purpose, outlining advantages and limits for the reported approaches. The last section analyses the principal results obtained in different application fields. A wide discussion is dedicated to the principal use of cellulose/polyethyleneimine composites as sorbents for water remediation from heavy metal ions and organic contaminants. Subsequently, we introduce the literature describing the use of these composites, functionalized appropriately, where necessary, as drug delivery systems, sensors, and heterogeneous catalysts for organic reactions. Finally, after a brief description of other random applications, we furnish a personal analysis of actual limits and potentialities for these systems.

Abstract
Natural biopolymers, polymeric organic molecules produced by living organisms and/or renewable resources, are considered greener, sustainable, and eco-friendly materials. Natural polysaccharides comprising cellulose, chitin/chitosan, starch, gum, alginate, and pectin are sustainable materials owing to their outstanding structural features, abundant availability, and nontoxicity, ease of modification, biocompatibility, and promissing potentials. Plentiful polysaccharides have been utilized for making assorted (nano)catalysts in recent years; fabrication of polysaccharides-supported metal/metal oxide (nano)materials is one of the effective strategies in nanotechnology. Water is one of the world's foremost environmental stress concerns. Nanomaterial-adorned polysaccharides-based entities have functioned as novel and more efficient (nano)catalysts or sorbents in eliminating an array of aqueous pollutants and contaminants, including ionic metals and organic/inorganic pollutants from wastewater. This review encompasses recent advancements, trends and challenges for natural biopolymers assembled from renewable resources for exploitation in the production of starch, cellulose, pectin, gum, alginate, chitin and chitosan-derived (nano)materials.

Iron Molybdate Fe 2(MoO 4) 3 Nanoparticles: Efficient Sorbent for Methylene Blue Dye Removal from Aqueous Solutions. Molecules 2020; 25:molecules25215100.

Abstract
The present study investigated iron molybdate (Fe2(MoO4)3), synthesized via a simple method, as a nanosorbent for methylene blue (MB) dye removal from aqueous solutions. Investigations of the effects of several parameters like contact time, adsorbent dose, initial dye concentration, temperature and pH were carried out. The results showed that MB removal was affected, significantly, by adsorbent dose and pH. Interestingly, lower values of adsorbent dose resulted in the removal of higher amounts of MB. At the optimum pH, the removal efficiency of 99% was gained with an initial MB concentration of ≤60 ppm. The kinetic study specified an excellent correlation of the experimental results with the pseudo-second-order kinetics model. Thermodynamic studies proved a spontaneous, favorable and endothermic removal. The maximum amount of removal capacity of MB dye was 6173 mg/g, which was determined from the Langmuir model. The removal efficiency was shown to be retained after three cycles of reuse, as proven by thermal regeneration tests. The presence and adsorption of the dye onto the Fe2(MoO4)3 nanoparticle surface, as well as the regeneration of the latter, was ascertained by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). These findings are indicative that the investigated nanosorbent is an excellent candidate for the removal of MB in wastewater.

Abstract
A waste material known as palm oil empty fruit bunch (EFB) is used as a source of cellulose for the development of polymeric materials for the removal of metal ions from industrial wastewater. A poly(acrylonitrile)-grafted palm cellulose copolymer was synthesized by a conventional free radical initiating process followed by synthesis of a poly(amidoxime) ligand by oximation reaction. The resulting products were characterized by FT-IR, FE-SEM, EDX, TGA, DSC, and XPS. The poly(amidoxime) ligand was used to coordinate with and extract a series of transition metal ions from water samples. The binding capacity (qe) of the ligand with the metal ions such as copper, iron, cobalt, nickel, and lead were 260, 210, 168, 172, and 272 mg g-1, respectively at pH 6. The adsorption process followed the pseudo-first-order kinetic model (R2 > 0.99) and as well as the Freundlich isotherm model (R2 > 0.99) indicating the occurrence of a multi-layer adsorption process in the amidoxime ligand adsorbent. Results from reusability studies show that the ligand can be recycled for at least 10 cycles without any significant losses to its initial adsorption capacity. The synthesized polymeric ligand was shown to absorb heavy metals from electroplating wastewater with up to 95% efficiency.

Abstract
An alternative and low-cost adsorbent (CS-APTES) was developed by the functionalization corn stover (CS) with 3-aminopropyltrietoxysilane (APTES) using a simple method. Several analytical techniques were used to prove the functionalization and then, CS-APTES was employed to adsorb Reactive Red 141 (RR141) dye from aqueous solutions. The functionalization with APTES caused an increase of 15 times in the adsorption capacity. The adsorption of RR141 on CS-APTES was favored at pH 3.0 using a dosage of 3.0 g L-1. The adsorption equilibrium was reached within 4 h, being the process thermodynamically favorable, endothermic, and controlled by chemisorption. The maximum adsorption capacity was 15.65 mg g-1. CS-APTES was efficient to treat a colored effluent containing various ions and molecules. The use of 10 g L-1 of CS-APTES was sufficient to decolorize more than 98% of this effluent. It was concluded that CS-APTES can be easily prepared from CS, generating an efficient and low-cost adsorbent which, in turn, is able to treat colored effluents.

Abstract
Polyamine chelating adsorbents have a good removal effect on dye wastewater. In this study, small molecule triethylenetetramine and macromolecular poly(ethylene imine) were selected as aminated reagent, and two kinds of aminated chitosan microspheres, TETA-CTSms and PEI-CTSms, were obtained by emulsion cross-linking method. The microspheres were fully characterized by FTIR, SEM, XRD, EDS and TGA. EDS results showed that the N content of the PEI-CTSms and TETA-CTSms microspheres increased significantly after the cross-linking reaction and can reach 5.7 wt% and 7.3 wt%, respectively. Adsorption experiments confirmed that TETA-CTSms and PEI-CTSms showed greater adsorption characteristics for anionic dye reactive yellow (RY) in aqueous solutions compared with CTSms, and the adsorption capacity per unit area was increased by 39.11% and 88.56%, respectively. The adsorption capacity of aminated microspheres for RY decreased with the increase of pH. The adsorption kinetics conformed to the pseudo-second-order model, and the adsorption process was in accordance with the Langmuir isotherm model. The negative value of ΔG confirmed that the adsorption process was spontaneous, and the dye adsorption was a multiple process dominated by chemical chelating and physical adsorption.
